6.  Position the nasal cannula on your face and breathe through your nose.

If no breath is detected for 3 minutes, your Aer X will power off.

The Auto X will sense the onset of inhalation 

and deliver a burst of oxygen at a precise time 

when you inhale. The Auto X will sense each 

breath and continue to deliver oxygen in this 

manner. As your breathing rate changes, the 

Auto X will sense these changes and deliver 

oxygen only as you need it. At times, if you 

inhale very quickly between breaths the Auto 

X may ignore one of the breaths, giving the 

appearance of a missed breath. This may be 

normal as the Auto X senses and monitors the 

changes in your breathing pattern. The Auto X 

will normally sense the next breath and deliver 

oxygen accordingly.
Make certain that the nasal cannula is properly 

aligned on your face and you are breathing 

through your nose.
